    Those trains can operate in the LGV Mediterranée Marseille-Avignon.
    The Regio2n in PACA (Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur) livery in Marseille
    The AGC in PACA livery in Marseille and Avignon
    The TGV Réseaux and Réseaux Duplex in Carmillon and Atlantique livery from Marseille to Avignon
    The BB 26 000 and the BB 22 000 with day and night intercity wagon from Marseille to Avignon
    The Regiolis in PACA livery in Marseille and Avignon
    the TGV Duplex in Ouigo livery from Marseille to Avignon
    the TGV M from Marseille to Avignon as a special service
    And the EUROSTAR e320 from Marseille to Avignon
    And this DLC could coast 20 to 30 pounds,euros,dollars

    Man, honestly this'd be pretty cool. I'm surprised we're not getting more French content.. considering Focus Home Entertainment is French.

    I'm hoping for a non-LGV route, perhaps in Provence or Pyrenees. It would be amazing!

    Yup, absolutely. Like no disrespect to TGV, but a French commuter route would be amazing, instant buy for me.

    My vain hope is also to see some small French metric routes, around 30-70km. I have already proposed the Balagne Line in Corsica, with the modern AMG800. It may not be a very fast route, but it offers incredible scenery.

    I agree. But I fear the only way of having more french routes in TSW is by having another TGV-route.

    TGV also operates on non-high speed sections, so it would be nice to at least have a route with both TVM and KVB sections... proper KVB :)

    At the moment two prototypes are engaged in tests both in France and in Czech Republic. The first series specimens will be delivered this autumn. They're scheduled to enter service in late spring 2025. I hope for a decent livery, otherwise I'll have to say that Amtrak's "American" son Avelia Liberty is better this time.

    Avelia Liberty, as far as I know, is pretty much TGV M adapted to US... and where it is failing atm is the company cant produce an accurate simulation for the regulatory/control office to assess, I believe it was said in a couple vids... so atm it sits gathering dust and getting occasional test run...

    The classic route along the Riviera, set in the 80's would be a sure fire hit.

    Oh thanks for your clarification! my news about it stopped a couple of months ago. Would we finally see them whizzing by in the spring of 2025?
